Hi,
I am designing a GUI application using a VC++ 2005 Form template. I have created a thread function external to the class containing the form. I can successfully create the thread and run operations in the thread function, but I want to be able to call member functions in the Form from the thread process. In order to do this, I plan on passing a pointer to the object (i.e. the form) as one of the CreateThread parameters. My CreateThread call from within the form is as follows:
networkHandle = CreateThread(NU LL, 0, networkQuery, (LPVOID)this, CREATE_SUSPENDE D, &threadIdent );
However, when I try this, I get an error that reads:
Error 8 error C2440: 'type cast' : cannot convert from 'display_module ::Form1 ^const ' to 'void *'
I imagine this is quite a simple issue (I am, admittedly, very much a newbie) but I haven't been able to find anything online that addresses issues with a CreateThread call from a form. Any help that can be provided would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Liam

Salve a tutti,
sto creando una applicazione che istanzia un thread al quale viene

My main app calls LoadLibrary() to load a DLL, which calls
CreateThread(). This does NOT return NULL and I get a thread ID.
However, ThreadProc never gets executed when this code is in the DLL.
It works fine in the standalone EXE source.
I put example code below.
#define MB(msg) MessageBox(0, msg, "", MB_OK|MB_ICONINFORMATION);

Hi All,
I'm new to VC++.net and I searched through the forums and couldn't
find anything related to this.
I'm trying to send a flat file from a VC++.net program to a PHP file
residing on a webserver. I know you can call a website from
VC++.net, but I'm not sure how to send a physical file over the
internet. I mean is there a way to mimic a normal html form to
upload a file, using VC++.net?

Hello,
I need to implement a Thread in a Visual C++ 6.0 application. I've never done this, then I've been investigating, but I don't have any properly solution.
One of them is use CWinThread to comunicate to a Dialog but it has been already created. And the other possibility is create a thread with the function CreateThread(), but it gives me an error in the third parameter:

Hello all,
I am quite new to c++/. Net so please don't shoot me down for being a newbie. Any way I am trying to make a simple multithreading program that is just to learn the ideas behind it (before I incorporate them in another program). I just can’t seem to get a non-static call to work in my thread that has access to the Form1 variables and controls I need. I can call a non-static function using another class but then I can seem to get in...
